    How can I change the sort order for my custom post type archive using pre_get_posts, when the SQL would be:

    ORDER BY wp_postmeta.meta_value ASC, wp_posts.ID DESC

    if(
	! is_admin() &&
	is_post_type_archive('fsbo') &&
	$query->is_main_query()
)
{
	$query->set( 'orderby', 'wp_postmeta.meta_value ASC, wp_posts.ID DESC' );
}

    The sort order is not right when I use this.

    I figured it out. Just put the things to order by in an array:

    if(
	! is_admin() &&
	is_post_type_archive('fsbo') &&
	$query->is_main_query()
)
{
	$query->set('meta_key', '_fsbo_status');
	$query->set('orderby', ['meta_value' => 'ASC', 'ID' => 'DESC']);
}
